Yessir! Go to that lunch and chat up the fellers and ladies.

Then get out there and start winning forever as you always compete to earn every single thing ever!

Wooo HOOOO!!!!

Repeat after me: "I'm in Pete. I'm INNNNNN!!!"


Priceless.

If I use the SOA directory...who should I send the mail to?

Just some random consultant? Or the senior/director type of person?

I never heard from them again.
Ha that's funny! I have a friend from the East Coast who interviewed with Milliman in Seattle and didn't have to pay a penny for his travels, staying at a hotel downtown, a few blocks away from their office.

Yeah, you should never judge a company based on something that happened 12 years ago.
